REST with Clean Architecture for Go

Inspired by swaggest/rest

Features

• Built with echo.
• Automatic OpenAPI 3 documentation with openapi-go.
• Automatic request JSON schema validation with jsonschema-go, jsonschema.
• Embedded Swagger UI.

Usage

Request

Go struct with field tags defines input.

// Declare input port type.
type helloInput struct {
    Locale string `query:"locale" default:"en-US" pattern:"^[a-z]{2}-[A-Z]{2}$" enum:"zh-CN,en-US"`
    Name   string `path:"name" minLength:"3"` // Field tags define parameter location and JSON schema constraints.

    _      struct{} `title:"My Struct" description:"Holds my data."`
}

Input data can be located in:

• path parameter in request URI, e.g. /users/:name,
• query parameter in request URI, e.g. /users?locale=en-US,
• form parameter in request body with application/x-www-form-urlencoded content,
• formData parameter in request body with multipart/form-data content,
• json parameter in request body with application/json content,
• cookie parameter in request cookie,
• header parameter in request header.

Field tags

• number maximum, exclusiveMaximum, minimum, exclusiveMinimum, multipleOf
• string minLength, maxLength, pattern, format
• array minItems, maxItems, uniqueItems
• all title, description, default, const, enum

Additional field tags describe JSON schema constraints, please check documentation.

Response

// Declare output port type.
type helloOutput struct {
    Now     time.Time `header:"X-Now" json:"-"`
    Message string    `json:"message"`
    Sess    string    `cookie:"sess,httponly,secure,max-age=86400,samesite=lax"`
}

Output data can be located in:

• json for response body with application/json content,
• header for values in response header,
• cookie for cookie values, cookie fields can have configuration in field tag (same as in actual cookie, but with comma separation).

Example

Advance Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"time"

	"github.com/fourcels/rest"
	"github.com/labstack/echo/v4"
)

func main() {
	s := rest.NewService()
	s.OpenAPI.Info.WithTitle("Basic Example")
	s.GET("/hello/{name}", hello())

	// Swagger UI endpoint at /docs.
	s.Docs("/docs")

	// Start server.
	log.Println("http://localhost:1323/docs")
	s.Start(":1323")
}

func hello() rest.Interactor {
	// Declare input port type.
	type input struct {
		Name   string   `path:"name" minLength:"3"` // Field tags define parameter
		Locale string   `query:"locale" default:"en-US" pattern:"^[a-z]{2}-[A-Z]{2}$" enum:"zh-CN,en-US"`
		_      struct{} `title:"My Struct" description:"Holds my data."`
	}

	// Declare output port type.
	type output struct {
		Now     time.Time `header:"X-Now" json:"-"`
		Message string    `json:"message"`
	}

	messages := map[string]string{
		"en-US": "Hello, %s!",
		"zh-CN": "你好, %s!",
	}
	return rest.NewHandler(func(c echo.Context, in input, out *output) error {
		msg := messages[in.Locale]
		out.Now = time.Now()
		out.Message = fmt.Sprintf(msg, in.Name)
		return nil
	})
